Hawa Bangura is twenty-eight years old, married with four children. Her husband is a government employee whose earnings are not sufficient to pay for all the family’s needs. Hawa started a small stall shop in the open market where she sells onions, hot peppers, salt and spices to supplement her husband’s income. Hawa is happy with her business because she can earn income to pay for the education expenses of her children. She is requesting the loan funds to enable her to purchase the business items in wholesale bulk to reduce frequent travels of purchasing the goods in small quantity thus increasing her profit.
